Something Japanese. Datsun? Toyota? Mazda?

Boobs!!!

Não acho que seja uma merda... nota-se que é Português do Brasil por causa da expressão linguajar, que é brasileira. Como se diz em Inglês, 'practice makes perfect' :AH-HA_wink:

There was a blonde Canadian at the restaurant last night... blue eyes... nice stimulus package

Ain't I clevah?

No, it isn't. Saab 9-3 just topped a reliability survey although it didn't do that well on the longer-term part. i have to try and scan it even though it is in Portuguese. Where Jaguar excels is in dealers pampering costumers, and I think that is a very good thing: not in the US, but my brother once bought a used Jag and my sister-in-law got this huge bunch of flowers delivered to her when my brother took posession of the car. I found that to be a really nice and classy touch, one I'd like to see other brands/dealers follow.

Delay cometimes equals shelved in GM speak... you're right, it should have raised a few red flags. Re its origin, a few tens of thousands Insignias badged as Regals are perfect to use up the capacity freed by moving the 9-5 to Trollhättan. I think the Regal will be built in Europe, in Rüsselheim to be accurate.

Independence Day

Muito bem! O Brazil é bonito. Agora tem que começar a treinar o Português.

So I take it that you wouldn't even consider a Buick badged Opel Insignia?

And people still come here and complain about Saab's reliability

I like this guy, I honestly do. I hope a good deal is struck so that SAAB can continue to exist.

Why?

Mass murder

From the article:

Dark blue Volkswagen Phaeton. Swiss plates.

After some thinking, here's an update: 1. Another MINI (question is: 3-door or Crossman?) 2. Alfa-Romeo Mi.To 3. Citroën DS3 (it looks like it will be a good alternative if it doesn't lose much from concept to production) If Saab survives and my economic situation improves, a 9-1 or a 9-3 hatch. But the way I see Saab going, this is an option that belongs to www.not-going-to-happen.com

Don't worry about that. Here in Portugal an appeals judge deciding on the compensation a defendant has to pay the plantiff decided to reduce the compensation from 1/6 of the defendant's monthly income to 1/5. Apparently idiots are everywhere...

Yet it is usually the VW/Audi Tdi that require 4000 to 5000 euro engine repairs while many JTD Alfas seem to run forever... On a side note (an interesting one) the Saab 9-3 has appeared at the top in terms of reliability in a Europe-wide survey.

:rotflmao:

I think the main difference is in the height of the front end. The 8C is much lower and ends up looking much sleeker. The 147 replacement will have a front end similar to the MiTo, but it will ride on the Bravo's platform. Hopefully with the Bravo's wheelbase and not the Delta's. If Saab dies, some kind of Alfa could be waiting for me
